Taken Prequel, Based on Liam Neeson Film, Ordered Straight to Series at NBC

NBC has a very particular set of skills, and they’re being used to develop the Liam Neeson film Taken into a prequel series.

The 2008 thriller, which spawned two sequels, starred Neeson as Bryan Mills, a retired CIA agent on a mission to save his kidnapped daughter. According to our sister site Deadline, the Peacock Net’s adaptation will follow a young Bryan as he acquires the very skills he uses to save his future daughter.
